I submit to you
My poetic Diary...
Words that float from within..
Yet nothing has certainty....
It is about taking it one day at a time...
I’m touched by life and circumstances..
And I begin over here ....

~Until the Desert Night Once Again Falls~ By Don Iannone

The desert night gasps for air,like a seething tornado howls afterits own coveted perfectly still center.Acetylene stars hang in pitch black skylike crystalline Cinderella slipperson a black velvet evening gown.Too petrified to blink, our eyes lockwith the night's penetrating stare.We long for the moon, but fearthe dreams it may birth in us,crippling reality before its first awkward step.The dunes cry mournful tears,like those of a mother losing her only child.I pray that one of the camels will move,breaking the suffocating silence,whose razor-sharp knife cuts deepinto the very jugular of our being.Morning comes not a moment too soon,and again we walkuntil the desert night once again falls.
